Former Tusker Project Fame principal and renowned singer Achieng’ Abura has died.
It is reported that the popular afro-jazz musician was apparently on treatment for depression and gastritis at Kenyatta National Hospital.
The Star Newspaper has reported that a source from the hospital also said that apart from depression and gastritis, Achieng also had kidney problems.
In her last post on Facebook, the late singer revealed that she had lost a lot of weight in the last three years, but wasn’t feeling well.
“I have lost over 50 kgs in the last three Years. Everything is hanging and weak. Walking is a problem with pains all over. Doctor says I must add 30 kgs then lose it as I exercise and firm up. The irony of life. I was not even losing weight intentionally! I allowed life to get the better of me. Learn from my mistakes,” the post read.
She leaves behind a 23-year-old son who was due to be flown abroad for treatment after undergoing a blood transfusion earlier this week. He suffers from sickle cell and a heart condition.
May her beautiful soul Rest In Peace.
